How's THAT working out for us?

How so? Iraq and Afghanistan is NOT a glass zone at this time, is it? Tora Bora was not leveled, is it? We had commanders like Halsey who could say that they would only be speaking Japanese in hell. Today, we have that sensitivity crap. How is it similar? We could firebomb them into submission then. Today, we have to try hit the guy who is hiding behind what we THINK is a civilian. Tomorrow, he could pick up the AK-47 and be a soldier. Back then we knew who the enemy was.
